If you want to catch perch, one of the easiest ways other than catching them schooling is, to tie on a little drop shot rig baited with either crappie minnows, small pieces of cut shad, and night crawlers or red worms work good too. Just drop it straight down to the bottom and reel it up a foot or two. You might find them anywhere now chasing bait too. Good luck

WELCOME BRO, LOOK FOR PERCH IN 20 2 30 FT OF WATER ON DROP OFFS OR SAND TO GRAVEL TRANSITIONS WITH SMALL MINNOWS AND VERY SMALL HOOKS LIKE A 14 OR 16 DROPSHOTTED ON THE BOTTOM OR TRY WEED BEDS BUT USUALLY END UP CATCHING SCHLOADS OF CRAPPIE OFF THE WEEDS
